If you were one to brag about such things, what would you rather boast about?

I DOS'ed Billy Bob's Bike Repair website or I DOS'ed CloudFlare?

Billy Bob's Bike Repair, because I know I can bring their site down. I also know that I won't be able to bring down CF or sites running behind their infrastructure so no g33k cred to be had, etc.

You think CloudFlare is infallible? I use their service but I doubt they are the first company in the history of commerce that is perfect.

They aren't, but they are very, very hard to bring down or slow down without a very big botnet.
